Permission to Be Human: A Poetic Pause with Recovery Crone
“You have permission to be fully and completely human, stumbling and bumbling your way through your process and thanking god every day that no one else lives inside your head with love, your sponsor.”
Ever felt the crushing weight of trying to be perfect? In this heartfelt episode of the Recovery Crone Podcast, the host offers a refreshing breather with a poem titled 'Permission'. Written for her sponsees in early recovery, this letter poem beautifully captures the essence of embracing our flaws and imperfections. In a world that often demands perfection, Recovery Crone's words remind us that it's okay to stumble, to feel lost, and to make mistakes.
She gives us the green light to be fully human, with all our quirks and shortcomings. The poem is a touching reminder that we don't need to be flawless to be worthy of love and acceptance. It's a nudge to forgive ourselves, love ourselves, and even enjoy our own company. We have the right to be confused, overly sensitive, and even to sulk sometimes. We can rebel, feel like giving up, and disappoint others.
And yes, we can be angry at ourselves, others, and even at the universe. But above all, we have permission to be human. Recovery Crone's poem is a beautiful ode to self-love and forgiveness in the journey of recovery. It's a gentle reminder that recovery isn't about achieving perfection but about embracing our humanity.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone who needs a break from the relentless pursuit of perfection and a reminder that it's okay to be perfectly imperfect. So take a moment, breathe, and join Recovery Crone in this poetic pause. Give yourself permission to be human.
